I just wanted to add my two cents. I am new to this forum but not to this subject. I will simply say, that "one should only focus on path and the path will take you there automatically" E.g. if you are building wall, then you will must focus on 'putting every brick on right place and at right time' that's all - the wall will be build automatically. little bit of "thinking" about is useful but not completely focus on the wall and stop our own progress.

this is also exactly, like you want to go to sleep but on your bed you are saying very good thoughts/actions about the sleep. if you really want to sleep then you must leave the every thoughts/actions including about the Sleep itself. similar with Meditation. whatever you are saying is very good. but to reach there is simply meditate! (I follow Kriya Yoga which is very fast way to reach the goal)

If you critically look at your own sentence "I WANT samadhi" ....there is no WANT ....this WANT only is stopping you from getting there. Samadhi is OCCURRED by its own and it is not in your control. whatever you do (meditation etc.) is just a preparation to OCCURR that state (samadhi).

Thanks

I agree.
One thing, tho, is if a person has no desire - they won't have the focus to reach Samadhi, by any name.
I believe that desire burning in us is a gift from God....to reach Him or Home or Heaven or Nirvana or
Satchitanand or Supreme Peace or plain ol' Bliss.

Going within - yup...and then suddenly....voila.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru

YES, I fully agree. But the burning desire is needed to make you do the regular practise, like prayer or meditation etc. but DURING meditation one should not focus on desire. May be you want to say Devotion but then it is completely different.

but I agree.

Thanks

Namaste.

This thread was created almost 4 years ago by a member who is suspended, so I doubt he is going to read it and give reply.

I wonder if he attained that which he desired? Nobody knows nor is ever likely to.

Aum Namah Shivaya
